Activating a paid version of Avast Cleanup on Android

A subscription purchased in the Avast Cleanup app is automatically activated on the Android device you use to make the purchase. A subscription purchased through another Avast sales channel, such as the Avast Store or an offer within another Avast product, needs to be manually activated using a valid activation code (sometimes called a subscription code or voucher code). If you want to use your Avast Cleanup subscription on another device, you also need to manually activate it. The number of devices you can activate depends on the subscription you purchased.

Before following the activation steps in this article, ensure the latest version of Avast Cleanup is installed on your Android device. For instructions, refer to the following article:

If you are activating your Avast Cleanup subscription for the first time, follow these instructions to activate your subscription using an activation code:

Go to ☰Menu ▸ Remove ads.

Select ⋮Menu (three dots), then Restore license.

The app will automatically retrieve and activate your Avast Cleanup subscription from Google Play Store.
